A few observations from my bye week experience:
I like John Mellencamp. I like my Chevy truck. After watching yesterday’s games on TV rather than in a press box I’m ready to cut the singer up into small pieces, stuff him in the trunk, and put a brick on the accelerator in front of a large chasm. The only people who welcomed those torturous commercials were the ones watching the 49ers-Vikings game.
Who knew the spleen was such a vulnerable organ in football injuries?
Someone told me that one of the college students arrested for breaking into Heinz Field on Saturday night was from Westbury. As the banner on the Coliseum says: We’re all Islanders!
Looking at the Jets remaining schedule, suddenly that Bears game doesn’t seem so daunting. Neither does the Vikings game. Is there a chance Brooks Bollinger could be the starter for the Vikes when the Jets get there in December?
Let me be one of the first to speculate this: The final wild card spot in the AFC could come down to two teams, Herm’s Chiefs and the Jets.

Jax is the final wild card. Jets will have 9 wins at most, 10 are needed, and the tie breaker goes to Jax or Cin. Jets would have tie breaker over the Chefs, it appears.
I assume you are fishing for comments with that Bears statement. Over under on points allowed by Jets in that game is 45.
